It never ceases to amaze me with all of the clever uses people come up with for that foam insulation in a can. I was doing an appraisal for a home recently, which for the most part the house was in pretty good condition until I got to this bedroom. The draft must of been more than they could take so they removed all of the base trim and starting plugging holes. Obviously this will have to be addressed.

For only $5 you can plug any hole, just as long as you aren't worried about cosmetic appeal!

Lisa~I'm thinking it's getting to the point someone is going to write a book like they did with duct tape.
Hi Liz & Bill~I'm thinking they must of been going nuts, because they ripped off all of the trim to fill it in with that ugly foam.
Thanks John!
You're right Joe, but they just left it, that's what the strange part is.
Hey John~It's not the worst that I've seen, but does make me scratch my head.

It makes you wonder, Michael, how cold that room was, and if the draft was that bad, is there insulation in the walls, or is there a hole to outside somewhere...
I love that foam insulation, but I think people tend to forget how much it expands... :D
